"My name is Thalia James. For two decades, I've been a member of the Earth Anti-Encroachment League, an organization dedicated to preventing unlawful exploitation of planetary systems. It's a pretty unexciting job, and up until recently, I was convinced that it would always remain that way for me...but I was wrong. After a brief visit to a distant planet, my life changed in a way I never could have anticipated. Now, for the first time in years, I'm finding myself yearning for the mundane."
That was one of the summaries of the adventure game I was going to star in...before it was cancelled in the late '90s. But if you think that game characters simply curl up and die after their games get cancelled, you'd better think again.
Adventure: The Inside Job shows you a side of the genre that has only been glimpsed in the past. Journey with Thalia through a variety of locations both familiar and foreign, meet unusual people and creatures that you just might have encountered before, and discover what goes on behind the scenes of adventure games...
